no, i'm not aware of a consensus against automake-1.9, and that can probably be reasonably be expected by most developer systems these days. the same cannot be said of atuomake-1.10 though, so submitting patches that either upgrade our Makefiles to 1.9 or better yet, make them work with 1.7 *and* 1.9 would probably be the right way to go abnout such a change. in any case, note that an automake upgrade is rather unlikely to happen soon without patch submissions. > dan --- ciaoTJ _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
